Lost and Found
We typically imagine God to be in Church, among the religious people. Or possibly in Heaven, surrounded by worshippers. But when some religious people in his day find Jesus partying with sinners and are scandalized, Jesus tells them a story about God's love for lost things. God is out there, searching restlessly until all who were lost are found!
From Series: "You Had to Be There"
The way Jesus taught attracted every kind of person, from the ultra-religious to the irreligious. What was it about his teaching? We miss how provocative his parables were because we're not first century Galilean peasants. In this series, we ask what it would be like if Jesus came today. What would his stories sound like? Just how good is this good news? Trust us... you had to be there.

The future can be a scary thing – especially because it doesn’t come with a roadmap. But when God calls us, we rarely get all the details. How do we move forward faithfully when we don’t know where we’re going? Advent invites us to anticipate well, to look to our fathers and mothers as they longed for God’s rescue. Their stories teach us how to hope well and move forward faithfully.
